2022年（苏州市中考）When I was little, I was really little. But my dream was big. I dreamed of being a basketball player. I tried out for the teams at school, but I was never given a chance.
As I got older, I did grow a little bigger, but not a lot bigger. On my 12th birthday, I decided to try a new sport: running. I told Grandpa. “I’m going to be an athlete.”
“Dave.” Grandpa began gently, “if you can’t be big, you can do something big.”
I ran 12 miles on my 12th birthday. On my 13th birthday, I did it again, but I added an extra mile. On my 14th birthday, I ran 14 miles. 15 on my 15th, 16 on my 16th, and you guessed it—17 miles on my 17th birthday.
All this running inspired（激发）another big dream. Someday, I’d run the Boston Marathon（波士顿马拉松赛）. I told Grandpa about my decision.
“But, Dave, you haven’t trained for the marathon. Are you sure you’re ready ” Grandpa asked. But he still promised to walk over and cheer me on.
I ran fast that day, But I fell at Mile 18 and was driven to the hospital. Later that night, I called Grandpa and told him I failed.
“No,” he said calmly, “you didn’t fail. You discovered something.”
“I did ” I asked.
“Yes, you discovered that big dreams don’t just come true. They take work. If you train and work hard, I promise to wait for you next year and cheer you on.”
I trained every day, running miles and miles. Sadly, just two months into my training, Grandpa died. He wouldn’t be waiting for my second Boston Marathon. I decided I’d run for him.
That day, I ran fast. “Keep going! You can do it!” His words filled my head as I forced my legs to make each painful step. As I crossed the finish line, I threw my arms in the air and cried, “Grandpa, we did it!”

“Why not, my son ”
“Because it is so difficult, father. I am sure that I shall never learn it. Besides, I could not remember it after I had learned it, my memory is so bad.”
“If I were to promise you a holiday on the thirtieth of the month after next, do you think you would forget the date ”
“No, I am pretty sure that I should not.”
“You are first－rate at skating, and flying a kite, and playing at ball and marbles, are you not ”
“Yes, father.”
“And yet you cannot learn your lesson! My dear boy, you are deceiving(欺骗) yourself. You can learn as well as anyone, if you will only try.”
“But have I not tried, father ” again urged George.
“Well, try again. Come, for this afternoon lay aside that kite you are making, and give another effort to get your lesson ready. Be in earnest, and you will soon learn it. To show you that it only requires perseverance,_I will tell you a story：—
“One of the dullest boys at a village school, more than thirty years ago, went up to repeat his lesson one morning; and, as usual, did not know it. ‘Go to your seat!’ ”said the teacher angrily.
“If you don’t pay more attention to your lessons, you will never be fit for anything.”
“The poor boy stole off to his seat, and bent his eyes again upon his lesson.”
“It is of no use; I cannot learn.” he said in a whisper to a companion who sat near him.
“You must try hard, ”replied the kind-hearted boy.
“I have tried, but it is of no use; I may just as well give up at once.”
“Try again, Henry!” Whispered his companion, in an earnest and encouraging tone.
“These two little words gave him a fresh impulse, and he bent his mind again to his task.”
Gradually he began to find the sentences lingering in his memory; and soon, to his surprise and pleasure, the whole lesson was mastered!
“From that day, ” continued Mr. Prentice, “there was no boy in the school who learned more rapidly than Henry. From that day till the present hour he has been a student; and he now urges his son George to ‘try again’ as he tried. ”
“And was it indeed you, father ” asked his son, eagerly looking up into the face of his kind parent.
“Yes, my child. That dull boy was your own father in his early years.”
“Then I will try again.” said George, in a decided tone; and, flinging aside his half-made kite, he turned and re-entered the house, and was soon bending in earnest attention over his lesson.
“Well, what success, George ” asked Mr. Prentice, as the family gathered around the tea-table.
“I learned the lesson, father!” replied the boy, “I can say every word of it.”
“Did you find it hard work ”
“Not so very hard, after I had once made up my mind that I would learn it. Indeed I never stopped to think, as I usually do, but went right on until I had mastered every sentence.”
“May you never forget this lesson, my son!” said Mr. Prentice, “You now get the secret of success. It lies in never stopping to think about a task being difficult or tiresome, but in going steadily on, with a fixed determination to succeed.”

2021年（扬州市中考)As a mountain, 1,642-foot Squaw Peak isn’t that impressive. But its views attract many hikers（远足者）. Henry Grant, a college student at Ithaca College, was one of them.
While waiting for his mother one day in August, 2019, Grant watched other hikers enjoy the view. One hiker, dressed in pink, was looking over the lip of the cliff（悬崖）with her husband.
When Grant’s mother rejoined him, the two continued on their way. Suddenly, he heard something scaring: “Paula! Paula!” a man shouted crazily. Grant turned around quickly. ________
Several hikers immediately started looking for her, but their view was screened by trees. Uncertain they could help, Grant and his mother headed down the trail. But when he saw some hikers still searching, he decided to lend a hand. After promising his mother that he would be safe, he went on alone.
After 15 minutes of climbing over large rocks, pushing past bushes, and slipping（滑） down loose earth, Grant found a pink figure. The woman had fallen about 75 feet. Luckily, she was alive.
“Paula! Paula!” Grant shouted. The woman didn’t reply. She was badly hurt. Grant called the police to report her location. She kept trying to move, and every time she moved, she slipped a little more. Afraid that in her unclear state of mind she might fall off the rock to her death, Grant climbed on all fours up a tight, narrow path by digging into the earth with his fingers and feet until he reached Paula.
Paula was moaning, almost senseless. Grant gently put her hand in his, trying to keep her mind off the pain by keeping asking her questions: “Where are you from Do you have kids ” Soon, they were joined on their perch（歇脚处）by another hiker named Simon.

2020年（镇江市中考）In a few hours Sam would be flying to Germany. We looked at each other but no sound broke the silence of my beach-side house.
Such a moment was not the first time for me. On Sam's first day of kindergarten(幼儿园), I felt his stress when holding his hand. He looked at me-as he did now. But I said nothing till the school bus came. About ten years later, I drove him to the college. He was sick but I didn't know then. I thought he was just too tired. I tried to think of something to say as he would start a new period of life. Again, _______.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those opportunities we parents all let pass. A boy graduates from school, a daughter gets married. We seldom find a quiet moment to tell them what they have meant to us. Or what they might face in the future.
Sam was weak when he was born but grew into a strong boy. Then he became the best baseball player in high school. His finest moment came when he got the first prize at a science fair. I was sorry he gave up his athletic talent, but proud that later he chose English literature. One day, I told Sam I regretted never traveling abroad to know better about the world before working. Sam decided to learn German in Berlin, even though his friends thought it meaningless.
The night before he was to leave, I failed to say any words again. Maybe, I thought, it wasn't necessary to say anything.
What does it matter if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him But as I stood before Sam, I knew it does matter. My father and I loved each other. However, I always regretted never hearing him put his feelings into words.
"Sam," I said, "if I could have picked, I would have picked you." I wasn't sure he understood what I meant. Sam came towards me and threw his arms around me, saying "thank your". My eyes misted over(模糊). Then, the moment ended, and Sam left home.
That was seven weeks ago, and now I think about him when I walk along the beach near my home on weekends. Thousands of miles away Sam might be busy walking in the street of Berlin.
What I had said to Sam was not new. It was nothing. But, it was everything.
(adapted from Words from a Father)
29. Which of the following can be put at the end of Paragraph 2
A. I failed to say a word B. his illness worried me
C. I decided to go abroad D. his growth satisfied me
30. When Sam heard "if I could have picked, I would have picked you", he might feel_________.
A. stressed B. sad C. calm D. excited
31. What does the writer mean by writing the last sentence "But, it was everything"
A. A father should care about his son's education.
B. A father should express deep love to his son.
C. A son should take his father's suggestion.
D. A son should respect his father's decision.
【答案】29. A 30. D 31. B
【解析】
本文讲述了一个父亲对儿子深深的爱，从儿子上幼儿园，到上大学，父亲从未在儿子面前表达他的爱，这一次在儿子临走之前，父亲说出了深藏已久的话，儿子激动地抱着父亲说感谢。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据Such a moment was not the first time for me…But I said nothing till the school bus came. About ten years later, I drove him to the college…I tried to think of something to say as he would start a new period of life.
